D Correct answer
Explanation

Sirius is the odd one out because it's a bright main-sequence star (A-type) in our nighttime sky, while Rigel and Betelgeuse are both red/bright supergiant stars, and Y Ori (likely Y Orionis) is a variable star in the constellation Orion. Sirius is fundamentally different in stellar classification and lifecycle stage.
